VasoCT

High resolution soft tissue imaging technology

VasoCT helps you identify and assess the size and extent of an occlusion in the case of an ischemic stroke. It helps you carry out treatment as quickly as possible, thus enhancing patient care and quality of life for stroke patients. VasoCT is based on a 3D rotational scan and an intravenous contrast injection, which can be less invasive.

VasoCT visualizes the location, size and direction of occlusions in brain vessels by displaying the vessel structure before and after the clot, which can lead to quick diagnosis and implementation of treatment. This is especially important for stroke patients because time is brain, and quick medical attention may lower their risk of disability and death

Advantages of VasoCT interventional imaging tool

Assists with ischemic stroke treatment in the interventional X-ray suite with high-resolution imaging of intracranial arteries.
Helps to visualize the location, size and direction of cerebral occlusions by displaying the vessel structure before and after the clot.
Provides extra support to navigate to and through the occlusion for vessel recanalization.

Information needed to make important decisions with intra venous imaging

Professor Jacques Moret, M.D., a leading global authority on neuro interventional techniques said, “A stroke is a life-threatening condition that can get worse quickly unless the right diagnosis and treatment decisions are made in time. VasoCT provides physicians with the information needed to make important decisions at a crucial moment for a stroke patient.”

Treating more ischemic stroke patients with X-ray interventions

A number of promising new endovascular stroke treatments have recently emerged¹ that can be carried out on an interventional X-ray system, thereby increasing the number of stroke patients that can be treated. VasoCT is an imaging tool that supports you in the advanced treatment of ischemic stroke in the angio suite.

Clinical advantages of VasoCT intra venous imaging

Through the use of high resolution soft tissue imaging technology, VasoCT reveals key information about cerebral vascular structures in a high level of detail.
It is based on intra venous injection and is less invasive than regular intra-arterial contrast injection. Additionally, VasoCT gives an indication of the direction to navigate to and through the occlusion.

Clinical results in ischemic stroke interventions

In clinical tests, the VasoCT technique resulted in very reliable and high quality imaging of intracranial arteries with a standard IV injection.
